Victora and Rosey

Wow the end of the world has come!! Rosey actually tagged me. I guess she was sleeping. I opened the door and shoved my hand in there like i always do but for some weird reason she tagged me and then was on point for about 30 secs until i grabbed her and dragged her out. Then she was fine and just sat on me. The first time she has bitten me in over 5 years of having her since she was a little 18 inch worm. Actually didnt hurt except my pride lol. She didnt even bite the vet when she stuck a needle in her nose to pull fluid to check when she had a sinus infection. She definitely has a big mouth as the top line is her upper teeth and the bottom couple pokes are her bottom teeth lol.

Okay tough guy! You don't hook train, right?

Just giving you a hard time. It happens. Really sorry it was sweet Rosey!

I wouldn't take it personally. For what it's worth, I thought it would look way worse.

I think your arm will heal faster than your pride though!

Must suck after 5 years of no incidents though to get tagged now. Must feel like it came out nowhere and probably shocked you big time!

Heal nice and be safe.

Haha, nah i have never hooked trained any of my snakes. I always just reach in and grab them. Not sure what was up this time though. Like i said, she has never bitten or even hissed at me or anyone in over 5 years.

Lol yeah it was shocking. It seemed to shock her too. Like i said, she was on point for about 30 secs. I just pet her and dragged her out and threw her over my shoulder while i got a paper towel to wipe blood off my arm haha. She was fine and went back to being a puppy dog.

So now in over 5 years, i have been tagged a total 3 times not counting Ally my JCP who tagged me about 20 times in a 6 month period. She was psycho though lol.

And yeah, I'm not worried, I will still reach in and grab her. Funny part is the shot i took from Vicky while trying to sneak in behind her to move a hide after i handled FT rats, hurt a lot more and actually bruised up nicely.

Well, after all the rave reviews from Gina and the gang about their plants, i went out and got Rosey and Vicky plants too. Here is Rosey enjoying and bonding with her new plant. Vicky is still asleep so she wont see her's until later tonight.

Havent gotten any pics of Rosey in a bit. She just shed a few days ago and i left the doors open for everyone to enjoy hanging out if they wanted. The only ones who took me up on the offer were Dottie(of course she does, for a BP, she doesnt act like one lol) and Rosey who i havent really 'played' with her in a while.
